The receptionist knitted her brows when she heard this.
She narrowed her eyes to look at before saying in a voice that had a trace of concern in it, "Are you sure about that? You just went into a dungeon, you don't have to risk your life like this. There should be more than enough money in that account for you to live on for a while."
She was right about that.
I had seen the summary of the account that she showed earlier and it was already more than what my parents made in a month.
Being an explorer certainly was lucrative, but one had to rember that this was a job that risked one's life. This kind of wealth was earned at the risk of one's life.
However, it was the only way that so people would be able to rise up in this world.
I had already made up my mind, so I said, "I know, but the Sli Hole was easy, which is why I want to test myself in another dungeon. I won't take things too far, I'll just take an E Rank Dungeon."
The receptionist narrowed her eyes to look at , but I didn't turn away as I looked right back at her.
After a while, she slowly gave a nod.
Though it was clear that there was a worried look that was in her eyes.
Even though she had no reason to be worried about , she was worried about . That just went to show what kind of person she was and I couldn't help being a bit touched.
But the receptionist could also see that I was perfectly fine after the Sli Hole.
I didn't even have a single scratch on , which just went to show that I wasn't lying about how it had been easy for .
So instead of saying anything else, she looked at the piece of paper that I put on the table and started putting the information into the computer in front of her.
When she was done, she handed the docunts I needed without saying a word.
Though she did turn away as if she was sending off.
So with a trace of bitterness in my smile, I said, "Thank you."
Then without waiting, I turned around to leave.
After he left, the receptionist turned back around to look in the direction that he headed off in and said with a sigh, "Kids like that are always the ones that get in trouble...But I hope that he'll be fine."
…
"Are you sure that you want to go in?"
The guard at the entrance of the dungeon asked after taking my docunts.
I just gave a simple nod in response.
He raised a brow to look at before turning to the other guards.
They had the sa look as they looked at .
It seed that all of them were surprised to see that I was here.
It wasn't as if I didn't understand why they acted this way.
Since they had the docunts from the Explorer Association, that ant that they had my information. That ant that they also knew what kind of familiar I had, which was why they were worried about heading into this dungeon.
The dungeon that I had chosen was an E Rank Dungeon known as the Mist Forest.
It was another open field dungeon, but this one was a misty forest that was filled with many different beast type monsters. This was one of those dungeons that gave corpses as loot, which was what my parents and other workers like my parents worked on.
Seeing that I wouldn't back down even though they questioned like this, they had no choice but to let into the dungeon in the end.
Though I did hear them whispering a few things.
"It seems like the rumours about the Explorer Association are true."
"Right, they were just sending those with low grade familiars to their deaths to cut the population."
"My son's around his age…"
I knew that they did all this because they were worried about , but I didn't say anything.
After all, the best way to prove them wrong was to co back with loot from this dungeon.
So without any further hesitation, I walked right through the gate of the dungeon and all of the sounds around disappeared.
When I ca back to my senses, I saw that I was now in the middle of a clearing that was surrounded by forest. Behind was a portal that was the exit to the dungeon that I had just co out of.
After looking around for a bit, I just headed off in a random direction.
It wasn't as if there was anything that I could gain from standing here and ti was precious, so I was looking for sothing to kill. I was looking for any kind of monster to take down to get so loot.
It didn't take long before I heard a sound from in front of .
"Ao!"
It was the howling of wolves.
I was familiar with this sound because of the ti that I had spent with the Gale Wolves.
So I knew that these were wolf monsters that were either in a fight or they were gathered in a pack.
Regardless of what it was, this was perfect for .
After heading in that direction for a bit, I found what it was.
It was a pack of wolves that were currently hunting down a deer.
The deer was running towards with the pack of wolves chasing after it and when that deer saw , it ran even faster at .
A faint smile appeared on my lips when I saw this since I knew exactly what the deer was planning.
It was just that I wasn't planning on letting this deer use .
When they ca closer, I suddenly said, "Freeze."
The Echo Bat on my shoulder suddenly let out a screech.
